Greenpeace considers that whether companies support an increase of the EU climate target to 30 percent or not distinguishes them as leaders or laggards.

Do they want Europe to lead and prosper or do they want to hold Europe back? Businesses that support strong EU climate legislation that can boost European investments, increase European GDP by up to €620 billion and enhance Europe’s competitiveness are for Greenpeace leaders on this issue. Companies that do not support this and actively, or through associations, lobby against this target are the laggards holding Europe back.
